Should I have this Jefferson graded?

I’ve had this beauty for a while, found in a roll of machine wrapped nickels. It’s purty! Given its condition, is it worth having graded?

it has a proof look to it....someone must have cracked it out of a set
although a clean coin and in nice condition I feel you might invest in certification for higher value coins, common date mint state coins such as this are valued modestly under a hundred dollars and it would be cost prohibitive to spend on slabbing this one
put it in a 2x2 and enjoy it in your collection
great find out in the wild

This is a standard business strike, in my opinion. Uncirculated, or nearly so, but still a business strike.

In any case, I do not believe it is worth the cost of submission.

Time for more coffee.

I wouldn't have it graded. Not unless you have 20 or more coins and they have a special going.

That really is an absolutely fantastic looking coin though.

stunning!! sold a '57-P in that condition on Ebay for abooot $26 a few years ago. older full steps with full luster are worth at least a few rolls of nickels

very nice. probably not worth the price of grading, but still a nice coin. It's my birth year, so you should probably just send it to me
